Biden’s baloney
So, for all that talk about the great and honorable President Biden, and all the talk about how you can’t believe anything that comes out of Donald Trump’s mouth ... Hunter Biden pardoned.
What about ...
How about all those convicted criminal cronies Donald Trump pardoned, and the rioters he’s promised pardons?
Keeping up
Let me get this straight. The 2020 election was rigged because Donald Trump lost, but the 2024 election was not rigged because he won?
Tariffs
Donald Trump imposing tariffs on Mexico and Canada is a chess move. It already has Justin Trudeau squirming.
Immigrants
To the author of Economics 101, I would like to know the source of your information. I watch the news and read the paper regularly and have not seen Donald Trump mention extracting immigrants. He has said from day one that he will extract illegal immigrants. I don’t think there is a person in this country that has a problem with an immigrant who has entered legally and gained U.S. citizenship by the proper procedures and laws of this great country.
Approve them?
The thing about the Senate rejecting any of Donald Trump’s appointees is that he will come up with replacements that are just as bad or worse.
Kash Patel
Every moderate Republican should be shocked that Kash Patel is being nominated by Trump to head the FBI. Not only is he totally unqualified, he has a disdain for rule of law. He has said on day one he will shut down the FBI.
It wasn’t that bad
I don’t know where you get your information, but the person who wrote that Donald Trump blew Vice President Harris “out of the water” is not correct. The most recent numbers that I could find were Trump 49% and Harris 48.4%. This is hardly him blowing her out of the water. He doesn’t even have a mandate from over half of the country. Find out the facts before you open your mouth and embarrass yourself.
Where’s JD?
Did JD Vance fall into a Florida sinkhole on his way to Mar-a-Lago? He seems to have been replaced by a leaping billionaire egomaniac who is attached at the hip to that other billionaire egomaniac.
No justice
Two stories today demonstrate the need for judges and prosecutors who will be tough on criminals. Someone who sees a public health crisis as the perfect opportunity to rip off innocent victims should have gotten more time in the first place and now wants his sentence reduced. A sexual predator whose father used to be an elected official gets no time at all. Those who prey on the vulnerable have no conscience, which can allow them to offend again. Where’s the justice?
Need proof
Please, please, please enlighten me as to when Donald Trump said he would eliminate Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid. I have heard the Democrats state this over and over but never have I heard him say this. A scare tactic I would say.
We know
Why do Sound Off readers keep posting that Donald Trump won the election as if there are some of us that haven’t heard the news yet?
